How long does it take for 2 units of botox to wear off (directly under eye)?

Stridle1
I am 30 years old and had 2 units of botox injected directly under each eye 7 days ago in an attempt to smooth creasing. I am left with a horrible effect and just want the botox to wear off! I look like I have bags under my eyes & the creasing is even worse when I smile. Since it was such a small dose I'm wondering if it might wear of quicker than a usual crows feet of say 12units (which would usually last 2 months on me). If I go to a sauna or do rigorous exercise might it speed up the process?
